Sensory Maps is a series of drawings by Finland-based artist Anna Ruth. The drawings record the artist’s travels and the movement of Vancouver buses over the course of a day, January 26, 2009, and were composed by allowing the vibrations of the vehicle to move a hand-held pen across a sheet of paper.
Sensory Maps is the first book in Pile Driver Editions, a new imprint of the ECU Press. Pile Driver focuses on books by artists and writers associated with the University.
